Hi MFP Peeps! I am back for round 2 on MFP and I am looking for some motivational friends with at least 50+ LBS to lose. I originally started in March of 2012 and lost 20 lbs but I got ill and gained it all back. Now I have recovered and I am extremely motivated!!!

Here are my current stats:

Age: 30
Height:5' 3.75"
SW: 229 on 9/17/2012
CW: 212 on 10/23/2012
GW: 130

Lets do this!!!

    I would love to be buddies! We are very similar too! I really need accountibility and dont get much support in "real" life. I am a full time working mom, 4yr old boy and almost 2yr old girl..... So making time for myself is a little hard! My all time high was 229, and I made it down to ~205, but have now crept back to 223.6 as of this morning. At only 33, I dont even recognize myself. I am an athlete covered in fat..... I know the real me is in there somewhere! My short term goal is 199, but ultimate is 150's.

    I would be glad to be among your pals. I set a goal of 70 lbs, but 90 would bring me to my ideal weight. Currently I am at 19 lbs. lost. This is hard work and you really need support. Perhaps we can be supportive of each other. Feel free to add me.:smile:

    Im in the same situation. I am currently 214. I was up to 220, kicked butt and got down to 175, and immediately got pregnant and gained it all back. My goal is 155, ultimately, but ill reevaluate when i get there. My short term goal is to get back below 200 for the last time. feel free to follow me, and ill follow back :) good luck!

    Hi I'm Laura. I'm very positive and highly motivated. I like friends that are dedicated to this journey enough to log in daily. I wish more of my friends understand what's its like to have such big weightloss goals. I am going to lose 180 pounds. I am over 1/4th of the way there but I still have a long way to go. I exercise a lot to get me where I need to go.
